Amen to that post :) As you say, it
could be all pure speculation, but
posts like this lighten everyones
hearts I'm sure and give us that little
bit of hope we're all looking for ;)
Very down-to-earth post, I like it :)

u are right about the chicken pox
thing. Adults sometimes get "shingles"
later which are stress induced adult
chicken pox.

Amen here too. I got shingles at 24,
why I don't know, I am a very healthy
person...May have been stress. The
body is weird.
However they are two different viruses
and HPV does stick around and is
contagious longer than the chicken pox
virus.

I'm so down with what this poster
said....I have a health science
background and I know that what you
are saying is in compliance with the
current medical literature about this
virus. Right on.

The notion that "the virus never leaves
the body and you always will have it"
stems from uncertainty as to when it
actually does leave...you have no
proof. The virus is in the skin and
there's no way to tell. It's not like
a cold where you start to feel better
so you know in a week you'll be clear.
Doctors probably started this staying
on the safe side of things rather than
telling people they are clear cause
they may not be...or they may.

Yup-that is exactly how docs are told
to report this to cover their butts so
there is no law suite-totally
understandable and yet a confirmation
that we need not feel like lepers for
the rest of our lives. We shouldn't
sleep around-but that is the case for
anyone and everyone.

noooo...everything I've read says that
Drs. don't know where the virus goes.
There is no scientific consensus. Our
challenge is to decide what to do in the
face of ambiguity, not to stick our
heads in the sand.

That is correct. there is an
ambiguity of what happens to the
virus. Common sense - treat it like
any other part of your body that gets
a wart. SAME THING. I DARE SOMEONE
TO PROVE ME WRONG WITH REAL MEDICAL
EVIDENCE.

hey I'm the original poster, Craig...
I wish you were completely correct
except the strains that can increase
cancer risks for the ladies. But...
other then that you got it buddy, by
the way I totaly took this amazing
looking girl out tonight, I'ma tell
her about it when we get to the
seriousness level. I'ma have her talk
to a doc about it too so she can get
all the info if we get that far, if
she says it's cool well.... continued

Right on that is such a good way to
look at it. Whether its right or wrong
who cares for now it makes us feel
better. Good luck with your date.

correct, except for the cancer strains
for women.

...the cancer strains in women are
only serious if the women don't keep
an eye on it with at least yearly pap
smears. You are more likely to get
killed getting into a car than
developing cancer from HPV

Well listen. I have got the wart virus
on other parts of my body and it's not
going....!!! I've had laser surgery
but more keep developing and I don't
drink and don't smoke and don't lead an
unhealthy lifestyle. Good luck guys.
